Bioresorbable vascular scaffold versus metallic drug-eluting stent in patients at high risk of restenosis: final 7-year results of the COMPARE-ABSORB trial
After complete resorption, no benefit was observed with BVS compared with EES at 7-year follow-up, despite the use of a dedicated implantation protocol for BVS. In fact, after 3 years, more target lesion revascularisations occurred with BVS than with EES.
